Streaming Stars, Then and Now

In 2016, Jax Smith directed two short films, Mental (*BravoFACT recipient & winner of 'Achievement in Filmmaking Short Form' at the Covellite International Film Festival 2017) and The Stakeout (Official Selection of Whistler Film Festival 2017 & nominated for 'Best Female Directed Short'). Previously she directed projects for First Star, World Wildlife Fund and The Projecting Change Film Festival, several of which have been showcased on CBS, The Knowledge Network, Urban Rush and On Da Grine TV and featured in The Vancouver Sun and The Province.

Jax is half of the writing duo, M&J (Meeshelle Neal & Jax Smith) and is co-head of Creative Services for Jeb Beach & Associates. She has also served on the board of Women in Film & TV Vancouver as Co-chair of Communications.

Jax starred in the short film Glow (2010), which she co-wrote with the film's director, Nicolas Kadima. She was Joan of Arx on Canada's Space Channel and has had roles on Eureka (2006), Hiccups (2010) and "Gone" (2011)_ starring Molly Parker. Jax has performed with the Soulpepper Theater Company in Toronto. She is a classically trained dancer who studied with the Toronto Dance Theater, American Ballet Theater and the Kirov Academy of Ballet.

A singer and songwriter, Jax is signed with Core Music Agency. Vic Levak of Balligomingo produced and co-wrote the tracks on her debut EP, Elevator Goodbyes. Jax also composes with musician Jason Poulsen and one of their songs is featured in the short film, The Stakeout. Jax directed and produced her own music video for the track, Pocket Full of Words from her EP, Elevator Goodbyes. The video was selected by B.C's public broadcaster, Knowledge Network, to air throughout the summer of 2011.

Jax wrote, directed and produced a PSA for First Star, an organization which is dedicated to improving the lives of America's abused and neglected children. The PSA was screened in LA and has aired on CBS.

Jax wrote, directed and produced numerous videos for World Wildlife Canada to help inspire viewers to conserve energy, starting with a PSA/Music Video 'Flicking The Lights Off', for WWF's Earth Hour. That video, a parody of another very popular YouTube video by comedian Sarah Silverman and actor Matt Damon, made its debut on the popular Vancouver talk show "Urban Rush" (2001), was screened at the 2008 Projecting Change Vancouver Film Festival and at Vancouver's Celluloid Social Club, and has been posted on Green sites and blogs all over the internet. As a result of her efforts, WWF Canada invited Jax to participate in their 2009 Earth Hour event and to continue working with them to help inspire others to become involved. Jax co-wrote, produced, directed and starred in four inspirational videos for WWF in honor of Earth Hour 2010. She also created a fun video for WWF's National Sweater Day.
